Section 4: Fire and Explosion Data
 
Flash Point, Deg. F:53 Flammable limits in air, lower 2%;upper 12.%
Method used:TCC
Extinguishing Media:Use water spray, dry chemical, CO2, or alcoholic foam. Do not use a direct water stream.
Special firefighting procedures:Fire fighters should wear selfcontained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Use water spray to cool nearby containers and structures exposed to fire.
Unusual fire and explosion hazards:Extinguish all nearby sources of ignition because vapors may be moved by air currents to ignition sources distant from the handling point.

Section 7: Preventive Measures
 
Ventilation:Local mechanical exhaust ventilation capable of maintaining emissions at the point of use below the pel.
Respiratory protection:If use conditions generate vapors or mists, wear a Niosh-approved respirator appropriate for those emission levels. Appropriate respirators may be a full face piece or a half mask air purifying cartridge respirator equipped for organic vapors/mists, a self-contained breathing apparatus in the pressure demand mode, or a supplied-air respirator.
Eye Protection:Chemical goggles unless a full facepiece respirator is also worn. It is generally recognized that contact lenses should not be worn when working with chemicals because contact lenses may contribute to the severity of an eye injury.
Protective Clothing:Long-sleeved shirt, trousers, safety shoes, rubber gloves and rubber apron.
Other protective measures:An eyewash and safety shower should be nearby and ready for use.

Section 8: First Aid Measures
 
If inhaled:Remove to fresh air. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. Get immediate medical attention.
In case of eye contact:Immediately flush eyes with lots of running water for 15 minutes, lifting the upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Get immediate medical attention.
In case of skin contact:Immediately wash skin with lots of soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes: wash before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation persists after washing.
If swallowed:Do not induce vomiting. Small amounts of this liquid drawn into the lungs from swallowing or vomiting may cause severe health effects (e.g. bronchopneumonia or pulmonary edema). Seek medical attention immediately.
